Joe Biden statements on crypto

Quoted from www.coindesk.com on May 22nd, 2024

President Joe Biden's White House published a statement of administrative policy, stating that the Administration has expressed its willingness to collaborate with Congress to establish a comprehensive and balanced regulatory framework for digital assets. This framework aims to promote the responsible development of digital assets and payment innovations while reinforcing the United States' leadership in the global financial system. However, the Administration has criticized H.R. 4763 (FIT21) in its current form.

Somewhat pro-crypto

A tweet from @CodyCarboneDC referenced Joe Biden

Discouraged that President Biden issued a Statement of Administration Policy saying he would veto H.J. Res 109, the Joint Resolution to nullify the SEC's Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 121. SAB 121 effectively prohibits trusted custodians from being able to manage digital assets. This Statement undermines consumer protection and sets a dangerous precedent of providing unchecked power to independent regulators. The SEC intentionally evaded the Administrative Procedures Act to issue this Rule to avoid public comment and transparency. Likely a tool to deter Democrat support, but I'm still optimistic we see a bipartisan vote on the floor this afternoon (4:30). The amount of Ds that support the Resolution will be illustrative. whitehouse.gov/wp-content/upl…
